PrestoDB in HPE Ezmeral Unified Analytics – Milind Bhandarkar, HPE


HPE Ezmeral Unified Analytics is an end-to-end data & AI/ML platform that consists of several popular open-source frameworks for data engineering, data analytics, data science, & ML engineering in a well-integrated packaging. These open-source frameworks include Apache Spark, Apache Airflow, Apache Superset, PrestoDB, MLFlow, Kubeflow, and Feast. This platform is built atop Kubernetes and provides built in security. In this talk we will focus on the role of PrestoDB in Unified Analytics as a fast SQL query engine, and also as a secure data access layer. We will discuss some of our value-additions to PrestoDB, such as a distributed memory-centric columnar caching layer that provides both explicit and transparent caching for dataset fragments, often leading to 3x to 4x query performance. We will conclude by proposing to make caching pluggable in PrestoDB and discussing future directions.

Prism: Presto Gateway Service at Uber – Hitarth Trivedi, Uber

Prism is a gateway service for all Presto queries at Uber. It addresses Uber specific needs in four main areas – resource management, query gating, monitoring, and security. It is responsible for proxying over three million weekly queries from 6000+ weekly active users across all of Uber. Presto has variable execution times due to high multi-tenancy at Uber. Prism helps in overcoming those challenges using features like query routing, load balancing, query gating, session parameter checks, failover clusters which helps in maintaining a 99.9% availability and reliability SLA for Presto at Uber. Functionality – Query Execution: 1. Async execution API returns data stream 2. Async execution API returns File Descriptor – Routing – Prism can route queries to different clusters based on client sources. Other functionalities: Load Balancing, Query Gating, Failover, Session Properties, Security
